The first adjective that comes to mind when I see the Perla del Mar Corojo Corona Gorda for the first time is
rustic, due in large part to the combination of an old school-looking band and a box-press that a is very obviously rectangular instead of square. While silky smooth to the touch, the mocha brown wrapper is also almost totally devoid of any visible oil, and it is extremely soft when squeezed. The aroma from the wrapper is a combination of incredibly sweet cedar and leather, along with peanuts, milk chocolate, hay, tree bark, earth and vanilla beans. The cold draw brings flavors of distinct dark chocolate, cedar, leather horse tack, raisin sweetness, creamy hay and slight vegetal.
